The staff were very friendly and helpful. Check in and out was easy. The rooms were aged, but very clean. Upon arrival the air conditioner was already on and the room smelled fresh and was clean. There was a pool onsite and it was also clean. The rooms were nonsmoking and pet free, decreasing allergens. There were several options for outdoor seating and designated smoking areas.

This is a nice little motel and has worked well for our annual float trip. A few of our friends mentioned that the AC units in their rooms weren’t putting out enough and they got a little warm, but our room stayed nice and cool. We brought a fan to help circulate the air, which worked great. The motel is clean, close to several food places, and only a short drive to the river. We stay here every year for this trip and will definitely be back.

Wonderful staff, older motels, very clean.Really liked soft comfortable bed, mirrors, USB charging ports on night table, alot of nice touches. Afraid would hear neighbors or traffic in parking lot- didn't which was nice. Felt very safe, one night , went to car and family were playing UNO at picnic table. Black out curtains- weak, need new ice machine in office. Kayaked 2days, never did get in pool, but others seemed to enjoy it. But would definitely stay here again, great location to rivers.

Comfort near the River

Very friendly, helpful owners who like their guests! Comfortable bed, great heating, good TV-streaming selection, defrosted mini-fridge (!), clean microwave, surprisingly well-supplied/equipped for an older property. Pristine swimming pool with deck chairs, safe parking, quiet, convenient right off the highway, close to Current River activities. Convenient espresso coffee shop onsite.
